Beiji Ge Park

Beiji Ge Park is a small hill near Gulou Park, and overlooking Xuanwu Lake. The park itself contains many small roads and some good places to look around, but it is not very big. Despite this, there are some truly great views that can be seen from here. In some parts, road winds through a small forest and offers great views of Jiming Temple. In fact, the park directly connects to the back of the temple, right where the old city wall ends. Other areas of the park look over wide swaths of Nanjing, with some views stretching all the way to Xinjiekou. This is a good place to go on a clear day, as good photo opportunities are plentiful.
